Abstract: An inkjet printing head including an ink supply layer formed with a plurality of connecting bores aligned so as to connect between ink cavities in a cavity layer on its rear side and corresponding ejection nozzles in a nozzle layer on its front side. The ink supply layer is formed from a porous material having a multitude of small interconnected pores so as to allow passage of ink therethrough. The ink supply layer features a number of ink inlet bores passing from its rear surface to its front surface and in direct fluid communication with a pattern of ink distribution channels formed in the front surface. The ink distribution channels and ink inlet bores together define part of an ink flow path along which ink supplied from an external ink supply passes from the rear surface through the ink inlet bores to the pattern of ink distribution channels on the front surface, and through the porous material to the ink cavities.

Abstract: A method for measuring degree and homogeneity of calcination of alumina utilizing an image analysis device equipped with a sensitive camera in a spectral analysis window corresponding to a wavelength range equal to or in the vicinity of visible light. The method includes the steps of mixing alumina under analysis in a liquid wherein the refractive index is, in the wavelength range, between the refractive index of a lightly calcined alumina and the refractive index of a strongly calcined alumina, preparing a slide for observation of the mixture in the image analysis device, the mixture being illuminated by stable polychromatic radiation compatible with the spectral analysis window, receiving an image by the camera and processing a signal resulting in the definition of an image composed of a given number of pixels with three calorimetric components, and statistically processing the pixels using their calorimetric components and determining the calcination degree and the homogeneity of the calcination.

Abstract: Electrode (12) is located on circuit board (14) directly behind dielectric plate (10) e.g. glass plate. Approach of finger towards plate alters capacitance as human body provides capacitance (Cku) and there is capacitance between circuit board and environment (Csu) so forming capacitance (Cks) between electrode and finger which is evaluated to detect person's approach. Electrode (12) is located on circuit board (14) directly behind dielectric plate (10) e.g. glass plate. Upper surface of plate forms the sensor surface (16) which user touches with finger (18). Approach of finger towards plate alters capacitance. Human body provides capacitance (Cku) and there is capacitance between circuit board and environment (Csu) so forming capacitance (Cks) between electrode and finger. Evaluation circuitry for the capacitance has electrode (12) connected to transistor (T1) base. Transistor base is connected to emitter via resistor (R1) and collector to voltage (Vcc) via resistor (R2). Square wave voltage of e.g. 5 V is fed to emitter to charge total capacitance, with transistor closed during charge. The larger the capacitance the deeper and wider the negative voltage/collector voltage developed. Negative voltage is used as trigger (20) to provide output voltage (Vo) if it is less than threshold value. Threshold value is set or self setting to allow for changes in capacitance values due to environmental conditions. Independent claims included for assembly and arrangement of electrode and amplifier section.

Abstract: An integrated circuit with both ballast control and driver circuitry and power factor correction (PFC) control circuitry. At the beginning of preheating, power is provided to the load circuit at a voltage below a voltage at which the lamp can ignite, and the PFC control circuitry can then bring the DC bus voltage up to its running value. For this purpose, the PFC circuitry is enabled depending on the mode of the ballast control and driver circuitry. The DC bus voltage is regulated at a lower loop speed when the lamp is running than when the lamp is ramping to ignition, to alleviate DC bus droop. A criterion is applied to determine whether over-current detect signals indicate an actual fault. For this purpose, detect signals during ignition ramping can be counted and compared with a fault number. A lamp end-of-life condition can be detected by comparing sensed voltage with upper and lower window voltages. When a lamp is off for only a short time, it can be quickly restarted without full preheating.
